Twenty babies in Britain named Adolf post-Second World War

Newly organized official birth records in the United Kingdom are uncovering some interesting naming trends, the Daily Telegraph reports.

For one, 320 Adolfs were registered in England before the Second World War. After the conflict ended in 1945 and Nazi leader Adolf Hitler died, the name dropped in popularity with the number of babies registered under the Adolf name reaching just 20 for obvious reasons. The most recent Adolf in Britain was registered in 2005. Apparently, there’s an Adolf Hitler Campbell registered in the United States who has a sister by the name of Aryan Nation Campbell.

Other interesting findings:

Ten babies born in Lancashire in the late 19th century were given the name Fish Fish, and at least one registered with the full name Fish Fish Fish.

Five babies were named Ringo in the 1960s after Ringo Starr at the height of The Beatles’ popularity.

Following Brazil’s World Cup win in 1970, eight boys were named Pele, after a soccer star who is hailed as a national hero.

Following Diego Maradona’s “Hand of God” incident in the 1986 World Cup, just four babies were registered with the Maradona name in Britain, although it’s doubtful it was done by supporters of England’s football team. (Maradona was playing for Argentina against England. Maradona scored two goals, one with help from the “Hand of God” and England lost the game 2-1.)
